Chapter Forty one Stop Thinking, Princess /-Isla-/For a moment, perhaps my imagination, the air around him changed. It felt dense with murderous intent but when his face betrayed nothing. It was calm. Eerily calm. At first, he looked like he wasn't going to say anything, he just stared at me. “Who?” came a one word question. I couldn't speak. He was reeking of bloodlust now. There was a very big chance that if I let the name slip off the tongue, Aaron would be dead the next minute. For some reason, the thought of that made something inside me clench. I didn't understand why I felt sorry for someone who almost ended my life. “Isla?” Roman called, snapping me out of my thoughts. I cleared my throat. “I… I don't think…”“Now's not the time for you to think. I just need a name,” Roman cut me short. I opened my mouth to talk but nothing would come out. Even Arla was getting impatient with me. “Was it Manda?” Roman asked, shocking me. I blinked rapidly. Manda? I was not expecting

Chapter Forty-ThreeA fleet of Anger/-Isla-/I couldn't explain. How do you even explain yourself out of this?I glanced at Roman but he seemed very unbothered, like Carlos' presence was insignificant. “What is going on here?” Carlos asked, stepping further. Roman adjusted his shirt and shifted closer to me. His lips curled in a wicked smile as he spoke. “Looks like there's trouble in paradise, Princess. Catch up, later,” he winked and walked towards the door. Carlos made a move to stop him but Roman shot him a look that made him immediately retreat. His face was red with anger as the door slammed behind Roman. I opened my mouth and closed it again because I had nothing to say. I couldn't believe that Roman just abandoned me like that without bothering to even straighten things up. “What was that?” Carlos demanded. “Are you sleeping with him?” “Carlos… Carlos please calm down, it's not what you think I promise. I…” “It's not what I think?” He barked. “Isla I caught you in the

Chapter Forty-fiveWould You Repeat That?/-Isla-/She was gone before I even had the chance to say anything but she wasn't my problem for now so I let her go. I needed to find Carlos first.Also because I was worried about what Elsie might do to him. The only on my mind to check was his room. I took a few minutes to give myself a little pep talk and brace myself for whatever I was going to face out there. Just then, the door burst open and a servant rushed in. “Princess…” she panted. “It's the Luna… she's… she's…”“She's what?” I asked impatiently as my heart rate picked up. I didn't even wait for her to tell me, I ran past her to find my mother. What could have happened? Was she in danger? Was it her health again?When I got to the main wing, I saw maids running around. Everyone seemed to be panicking and busy at the same time. What the hell happened to my mother?I hurried to her room only to find it swarmed by doctors. Roman was nowhere in sight but Carlos and Elsie were th

Chapter Forty-SevenCoffee Drops/-Isla-/The next day, I powdered every bruise on my face and headed to work. I checked on my mother and thankfully she was already doing better. I asked Elsie to take care of her while I checked in at the office. I haven't been around for two days now and I was certain that Miss Liana would make it miserable for me. I couldn't bring myself to check in with Carlos before I left. He still hated me, I could tell so I'll just leave that for when I'm back.As I stepped out of the palace, I saw Roman ahout to leave as well. I quickly turned away, hoping that he wouldn't see me but unfortunately he did. “Isla,” he called after me and I stopped in my tracks. I turned slowly to look at him. He was in a black shirt and grey trousers today. As usual, he looked like something off the front page of a magazine with that silver streaked hair falling down his shoulders. While I, on the other hand, was in a simple white shirt with a grey pinafore gown and flats. I

Chapter Forty-NineYou Are Irrevocably Mine/-Isla-/It was when I stepped into his office that I realized how impulsive and stupid I was being. How could I just show up here with the intention of actually giving my virginity to this man?He was seated behind his desk, leaning casually against his executive chair, a glass of whiskey in hand as he watched me. I stood there like a fool, unsure of what to say. My nerves were acting up already and I was sweaty. Roman, he didn't look away. It felt like his eyes were piercing through my soul. “Is there something you need, Miss Kane?” He asked and I swallowed thickly.“Yes… no, of course not,” I stuttered out. “I will just be on my way now.”It was stupid but I turned to the door quickly, hoping to get away from here as quickly as I could. “Wait!” Roman called after me suddenly and I froze. He stood up from his seat and chills ran down my spine. Oh Goddess! He wasn't even here yet and my body was already acting up. How on earth was I g
